Wed, 12 Oct 2011 14:42:57 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320587…because holding him hostage is clearly a better option than getting compensation for a player that you don’t appear to need anymore. IDIOT.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 13:09:55 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320363I’ve gone from being one of the biggest Carson Palmer fans in Cincy to changing the nameplate on his jersey to read “Playoff Wins = Zero. Bank Balance = 80 Mill. This guy couldn’t lead a scout troop now. Who wants a QB that won’t even come out and explain what his problem is. I still believe he’s hiding behind his wife’s skirt tales since she got her feelings hurt when he was booed after an annoucement in the stadium that he had reached 20,000 yards in career passing. I guess she didn’t notice the two pick sixes he threw that game.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 08:10:26 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320219How is waiting a better option?

Outside of some free agent retreads and backups and David Garrard, trading for a QB is your only option to obtain one now. By waiting not only do these same options exist but so does the draft and this next draft is expected to be QB rich.

Supply and demand says now is the time not later.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 04:21:30 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320159He would be a huge upgrade for the Jets. Suddenly the Jets running game, passing game and defense gets better with the addition of one player.

Imagine the Jets offense where defenses would have to respect the QB and not think of the Jet QB as an opportunity for a defensive TD.

Don’t be so silly, there’s plenty of reasons why he could get traded now.

And who says he’ll want to play next year?

He may be worth exactly nothing then whereas he’s suppposedly keeping in shape right now.

I always thought logic would be a strong suit for a lawyer.

Apparently not.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 03:22:12 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320109For those of you hating on Carson Palmer’s “diminished skills”, keep this in mind – he was throwing the ball to receivers who were one (or all) of the following:

1.) thinking more about their reality TV show than football
2.) running the wrong routes
3.) a distraction in the locker room and the huddle
4.) currently 4th of the Patriot depth chart
5.) overdosing on pain pills

The guy can still sling the ball around and only requires receivers running the correct routes and a little time to pick a defense apart. If you want to pass judgement about his quitting on the team go for it, I hated it too. But if you didn’t watch any of the games last year (I watched all of them) then you don’t know anything about his mechanics and arm strength.

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 03:20:13 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1320108Honestly I don’t blame Palmer for wanting a trade. Mike Brown traded or pissed away every weapon he had because he didn’t want to pay them what they were worth, and then wanted to throw Carson under the buss when their replacements failed to produce.

This brAss want be around after they fold on Monday
Night against the Jets. And why would CP want to be apart of a rebuilding team for the next 3-5 years along with this nut brain of an owner…

Wed, 12 Oct 2011 02:04:57 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=160061#comment-1319948First off, the best thing they will get in a trade NOW is a 2nd or 3rd. no team will give up a 1st for a guy who hasnt played all year and would have to learn a new offense. As for where i WANT him to go, where else??? Washington! unless they start losing, they will NOT be in position to get Luck, Landry Jones or Matt Barkley (all three i would like to have), BUT i don’t see a trade. This is the SAME owner who wouldnt accept TWO first round picks for Chad Ochocinco (who Snyder tried to get by the way).

Palmer signed the contract. He knew that as long as he is functional he’d be paid. No Bengal QB ever refused to play for the franchise when they sucked until Carson decided he wanted out. If I’m brown I make him rot until his contract runs out in four years. The only way I trade him is if I get a great deal and he plays on a team where he is guaranteed to get sacked 80 times a year.

Especially now that Payton’s vertebrae in his neck are welded together.

Who knows if/when Payton is really coming back, and if he will perform as well as in the past.

…moreover, since the team is doing well, there is no need to try and woo him back…whether or not he is traded for picks this year or next or never, it doesnt really matter…he quite and his absence has made this team better

Yes, Mike you won the pissing contest but you could have really gave your business a big boost with a Blackmon being on the other side of AJ Green plus another high draft pick. Glad to see your pride didn’t get in the way of making your team a contender.
